Hike to Kjeragbolten (990 m) in the Lysefjord

This tour takes you to the iconic Kjeragbolten, a rock wedged between two mountain walls 990 meters above the Lysefjord.

The hike starts from Øygardstøl, located on Lyseveien. There is parking, a café and toilets here, making it easy to prepare for the hike.

The trail starts with a steep climb, where chains are attached to the mountain for extra support. After the first part, the terrain flattens out, before another steep climb takes you further up. Along the way, the landscape alternates between rocks, mountains and small marsh areas, which provides a varied and exciting experience. After the final ascent, you reach the Kjerag plateau, where a short hike over mountainous terrain leads to the Kjeragbolten itself.

Remember to be careful if you plan to go out on Kjeragbolten. It is an incredible experience, but it also requires respect for the height and the surroundings.

The return trip goes the same way.
